Minimalist Art

When I first started reading about minimalism on ZenHabits and mnmlist, I began thinking about what minimalist art would consist of. Would it be a solid-colored canvas? Perhaps a color field painting? Maybe a stylized landscape? Would my choice fit another minimalist’s criteria?

As a portrait artist, I tried to create a minimalist portrait. It took me longer than I thought it would, but I managed to capture Leo in the fewest details necessary.

You can see the picture I worked from on his about page. What do you think, did I create a successful minimalist portrait?
